Albino or Genetic Mutation; These White Animals are Magnificent Examples from the Animal Kingdom

A Rare White Moose Has Been Captured On Video In Sweden

August 15, 2017

Video footage of a rare white moose spotted in Varmland, Sweden, has caught fire on the internet this week.

There are only around 100 white moose in the wild. The animals are not albino, but grow white fur due to a generic mutation.
The footage was captured on August 11 by Hans Nilsson who had been searching for the rare animal for three years.

These Albino Animals Are Extremely Rare And Incredibly Beautiful

Animals that are completely white as a result of albinism or leucism are extremely rare in the wild, since their lack of camouflage colors makes them easy targets for predators. We recently showcased 31 Unusually White Animals, and received an overwhelming response – so here is part 2, with even more colorless animals that prove that you don’t have to have fancy colors to be stunningly beautiful.

Here Are 31 Unusually White Animals That Are So Rare, You’ll Probably Never See Them In Real Life.

Since ancient times, white animals held a special place in human society and are prominent and even sacred in many cultures’ mythologies.
Rare genetic mutations sometimes cause an animal to be born lacking the regular color of its species. These animals can be true albinos, which lack all pigments and have white fur and reddish-pink eyes, or leucistic, with white or light-colored fur but possessing some other pigments.

Sinner's Prayer Of Repentance
“Have mercy on me, O God,
according to Your unfailing love;
according to Your great compassion
blot out my transgressions.
Wash away all my iniquity
and cleanse me from my sin.
For I know my transgressions,
and my sin is always before me.
Against You, You only, have I sinned
and done what is evil in Your sight,
so that You are proved right when You speak
and justified when You judge.
Surely I have been a sinner from birth,
sinful from the time my mother conceived me…
Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean;
wash me and I will be whiter than snow…
Create in me a pure heart, O God,
and renew a steadfast spirit within me.
Do not cast me from Your presence
or take Your Holy Spirit from me.
Restore to me the joy of Your salvation
and grant me a willing spirit to sustain me.
Then will I teach transgressors Your ways,
and sinners will turn back to You.
(Psalm 51, King David)
